ONVIF Specifies "Slitty" Eyes, "Double" Chins, "Hooked" Nose Analytics, Co-authored By Sony and Hikvision

Published Jul 20, 2023 13:05 PM

ONVIF's video analytics specifications feature "face value metadata samples" including "slitty" eyes, "double" chins, and "hooked" noses, in a section co-authored by Hikvision and Sony employees.

This raises concerns about how such analytics could be used to discriminate and profile ethnic groups and people for specific facial features.
